After two weeks of dance, poetry and music, the annual Kingaroy Eisteddfod drew to a close on Saturday night with a huge gala concert at Kingaroy Town Hall.<\/p>\n

The hall was packed for performances by some of the South Burnett’s best up-and-coming talent.<\/p>\n

There was dancing – from ballet to contemporary – choral performances (including a stunning performance of ‘O Fortuna’), band music, and speech and drama.<\/p>\n

This is the 83rd year the Kingaroy Eisteddfod has been held.<\/p>\n

The competition draws competitors from all over south-east Queensland and couldn’t take place without the help of a small band of dedicated volunteers who turn chaos into order every year.<\/p>\n
